DPNA and Habitat for Humanity of Omaha would
like to invite you to take part in our new and exciting collaborative volunteer
event, Rock the Block. On Saturday, September 8, 2012, neighbors and volunteers
will work together on several exterior home improvement projects in the Deer
Park neighborhood. Participating households will swap yards for one full
Saturday to beautify one another’s yards with the help of 50 or more volunteers.
Together, we will clear unwanted brush, haul dirt, plant flowers, build
relationships, and of course have loads of fun!!!
This first Rock the Block will occur on a
portion of South 19th Street next door to our new Habitat for
Humanity house. In addition to the added curb appeal, participating households
will strengthen communication and the collective efficacy with their
surrounding neighbors. We aspire that
Rock the Block will prove itself as a great piece to our Neighborhood Revitalization
Initiative. If you are able, we hope you can participate in this great
opportunity and witness firsthand Habitat for Humanity’s new way of engaging
neighbors and volunteers.
To sign up as a volunteer, please contact Turner
Morgan at 712-310-3102.

work part of the way, we will still be excited to have you a part of this
event.
